If I were to preach upon this text ("For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also." Matt. 6:21), to such a glass, it would be enough for half the sermon, enough to show the worldly man his treasure, and the object of his Heart, to call his eye to that minute-glass, and to tell him, "There flows, there flies, your treasure, and your heart with it."   But if I had a secular glass, a glass that would run an age; if the two hemispheres of the world were composed in the form of such a glass, and all the world burnt to ashes, and all the ashes, and the sands, and atoms of the world put into that glass, it would not be enough to tell the godly man what his treasure, and the object of his heart is. A parrot will sooner be brought to relate to us the wisdom of a council table, than any Ambrose, or any Chrysostom, men that have gold and honey in their names, shall tell us what the treasure of heaven is, and that man's peace, that hath set his Heart upon that treasure.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8094</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The life of man is the true romance, which when it is valiantly conduced, will yield the imagination a higher ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62511]]></link><description><![CDATA[The life of man is the true romance, which when it is valiantly conduced, will yield the imagination a higher joy than any fiction.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62511</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We have believed--and we do believe now--that freedom is indivisible, that peace is indivisible, that economic prosperity is indivisible. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20005]]></link><description><![CDATA[We have believed--and we do believe now--that freedom is indivisible, that peace is indivisible, that economic prosperity is indivisible.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20005</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have no rest, but in a nook, with the Book. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8099]]></link><description><![CDATA[I have no rest, but in a nook, with the Book.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8099</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Some people follow their dreams, others hunt them down and beat them mercilessly into submission. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12923]]></link><description><![CDATA[Some people follow their dreams, others hunt them down and beat them mercilessly into submission.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12923</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Don't park in the spaces marked, "Reserved for Umpires.". ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57473]]></link><description><![CDATA[Don't park in the spaces marked, "Reserved for Umpires.".]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57473</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We sometimes encounter people, even perfect strangers, who begin to interest us at first sight, somehow suddenly, all at once, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46033]]></link><description><![CDATA[We sometimes encounter people, even perfect strangers, who begin to interest us at first sight, somehow suddenly, all at once, before a word has been spoken.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46033</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is the end of a generation that remade and saved baseball in Seattle.
